Some of you are about to be amazed. Well, at least some people that haven’t seen me in a while.

I no longer have crooked teeth, but I may still be subject to the name “Can-opener”

Last Monday, the dentist said that my teeth were ready for the next phase. The following conversation between the D and the assistant was mostly ignored until i heard him say “blah blah put a power chain between blah blah”… I suddenly awoke from my stupor “Excuse me, did you use the word ‘power chain’?” Yup, he did. Never heard of such a thing before. “couldn’t they use a more comfortable word?” “like what”, he said “the cuddly comfy chain?”

Welp, as you can see in the picture, across the gap is a small chain. Its job is to pull the front teeth apart. For the next three weeks, I will have this “bling” along with my now straight teeth. The next step is the bridge to fill in the hole.
